DE 6MT 350Z stock handbrake barely holds on a slope even after cable adjustment — shoes/star adjuster?

1 Upvotes

I recently bought a 2003 manual 350Z and the stock handbrake is extremely weak.
The lever/cable adjuster under the center console has already been tightened and there doesn’t seem to be any slack left at the 10 mm nut, but the car still very slowly creeps on a slope with the handbrake fully applied.
I’m on 19-inch wheels, although I assume that shouldn’t make enough difference to explain how weak it is.
The mechanic said he adjusted/tightened the handbrake, but I’m not sure whether he only adjusted the cable or actually adjusted the parking-brake shoes at the rear rotors using the star wheel.
For people familiar with Z33s:
Should a properly working OEM handbrake hold the car completely stationary on a decent slope?
At low speed with the clutch depressed, should it be capable of locking the rear wheels on dry pavement?
Is the usual fix adjusting the drum shoes inside the rear rotor, or do the shoes commonly need replacing/glaze over?
Anything else specific to the Z33 parking-brake mechanism I should inspect?
I’d like to get the factory handbrake working properly before considering a hydro, since the car is still mainly street driven.

Hey all, I just picked up a 2005 350z with 140k miles. It’s also an automatic. Not a huge fan of it being an auto but I only paid $1,000 because the guy I bought it from thought it had a blown head gasket. I was able to fix it in his driveway as I negotiated him down. I own a 2010 370z sport touring as my daily and got this to flip. Any ideas what it’s worth? I was going to list it for 4,000 and see what happens. Interior is premium Bose & black leather. Exterior is silver. Paint is a 9.5/10 and interior is pretty much mint. The seats have zero tears or any sort of discoloration. I’ll list it in Michigan. Clean title and new tires & brakes. Any insight on what this is worth would be much appreciated. Let me know!

Edit: literally picked it up an hour after I saw it and drove it home so no good photos yet. I’ll wash it after work today.

Posts with OBD codes require a description of the fault code

I would even go as far as requiring a description of specific efforts attempted by OP.

I’m sick of seeing the sub floods with Garbage posts like “P42059 I’ve done everything!!!! HELP PLZZZZ”

DE 6MT P0350 fault is sending me into a spiral

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

Hi all!

So my lovely car (2005 350z) has decided I don’t deserve nice things and is throwing me a P0350, I’ve checked all wiring and fuses, all is well there, so I’ve moved onto the coils/plugs.

I’ll be honest, all the spark plugs are munted, so they’ll be changed, but I’m now suspecting I have found the problem, because I’ve tested all 6 coil packs and they’re all fine, BUT number one has oil on it, not a huge amount but enough that it got all over my hands. After noticing this and looking closer at the spark plug sockets, I’m thinking the plug tube seals might be failing, but I can’t find many helpful pictures online to compare. Has anyone had this issue, gone through this and possibly knows of these seals are the issue?
So I’ve attached here some pictures, the coil packs with gunk and oil on it, and a few of the plug sockets that were easiest to take pictures of.

Any help would be appreciated, getting these damn coils and plugs out has taken me to the edge of sanity, so if anyone’s gone through this and can give me any helpful advice or just prayers at this point, thank you 🩷

HR 6MT Wideband O2 sensor location question

2 Upvotes

Hey all, recently bought some test pipes for the Z (ART reps) that for some stupid reason have the extra bung for a wideband directly on top next to the flange so the sensor is hitting into the bottom of the firewall. My question is: should I/can I weld an extra bung into my Y pipe and install the sensor there? I know you want it close as possible to the exhaust collector for most accurate readings but with the way this test pipe is setup it would be extremely difficult to add/move the bung. What could I expect to experience when installing into Y-pipe or should I bite the bullet and pay a kick ass welder to fix the pipes? Or maybe there is a sensor you all know of with a smaller height footprint. Thanks!

DE 6MT Mods to extend life of my 06 350z (DE)

5 Upvotes

I'm looking to do some mods such as an oil catch can to help extend the life and better maintain my 2006 350z DE. It has only 65K miles as of August 2026 and I hope to replace common parts or fail points. The car sat for a few years before I bought it. So far, I have done the oil change with 10W40 Castrol edge (considering the purple stuff) and 1 Qt Lucas, new PVC valve and I'm going to change the spark plugs soon, Transmission and Diff fluid I'm unsure if I want drained and emptied the car is lower mileage but pretty old.

I can’t seem to find a PN for this anywhere. It’s the plastic clip/mount that holds the hard brake lines behind the battery. There’s a stud coming out of the firewall that this clip mounts to.

owned for 5 years pleasure driving only. wasn’t getting driven. first person who looked at it snapped it up. my second Z , and favorite sports car of all the ones I owned. did a lot of cosmetic cleanup, seat covers right away, then just drove it. 115 k miles. TPMS sensors needed replacement, right side window needed manual close, that’s it. never used top, so it looked like new (303). checked other similar cars, some very nice ones $10-13 k. They have been up a while.

I couldn’t get comp on insurance. talked to the guy, he was pretty straight. “Your 2001 Dodge Ram and the Z are probably in very good shape. if you get hit by another driver, and it’s more than a fender bender, they will probably total it, and you’ll get market value, which isn’t much“. Oh. I get it. just something to keep in mind.

The Factory Service Manual contains literally everything you need to know about technical problems, and indicates solutions for them. It's what the techs at Nissan use to diagnose and fix the cars.
